Apical Root Elevator Right
An Apical Root Elevator Right is a specialized dental instrument designed for the surgical extraction of fractured or retained tooth roots, particularly those in the right posterior quadrants of the mouth. It features a sharp, angled, and slightly curved tip that is inserted into the periodontal ligament space between the bone and the root surface. The “Right” designation indicates the blade is angled for optimal application on the mesial or distal aspect of roots on the patient’s right side, allowing the surgeon to apply controlled rotational force to elevate and deliver the root fragment with minimal trauma to the surrounding alveolar bone.
Key Features:
-
Angled Right Tip: Specifically contoured for accessing and engaging roots on the patient’s right side.
-
Sharp, Narrow Blade: Designed to fit into the narrow PDL space for precise elevation.
-
Controlled Mechanical Advantage: Allows for application of rotational or levering force to mobilize root fragments.
-
Ideal for Surgical Extractions: Essential for removing fractured roots, root tips, or teeth with hypercementosis.
-
Durable Construction: Made from high-grade, medical-grade stainless steel.
-
Fully Sterilizable: Autoclavable for safe, repeated use in oral surgery.
